What do you think of Tiago for a boys name? It is the portugueese version of Diego.?

My wife likes Lucas and that's not bad, but then he'd be Luke the puke. Tiago (pronounce teeahgo) is different, but it might be hard to come up with something to make fun of it. Is it to different? Ti would be a pretty cool nickname.

the name would be pretty cool in a spanish/portuguese culture but in an americanized culture where many people are familiar with disney, it'd be picked on fo sure because it rhymes with Iago from Aladdin.
Reply:Unless you're Portuguese or Brazilian or from such a family, naming your son Tiago would be a big mistake. No one would get it, and it kind of begs to be made fun of. It's really soft-sounding, especially our culture where people name their sons 'Ryder' and their daughters 'Hunter'.
